Abstract

A multi-part vibration isolating fastener assemble (10) includes a bolt (16) having a threaded shank and a head (22) about which a torque-limiting sleeve (28) and resilient grommet (42) are disposed. A cup washer (54) is disposed about and captured axially on the grommet (42) to provide a unitized assembly. The integrated cup washer (54) is disposed about and captured axially on the grommet (42) to provide a unitized assembly. The integrated cup washer (54) defines a self-contained cup-shaped socket to provide proper support and containment for the grommet (42) in applications where the usual cup-shaped grommet wall is lacking in the components to be assembled, such as a valve cover, and cylinder head.
